From Harry Wills' Fighting for Fife website yesterday :
"The Conservative party conference opens today in Birmingham but there is little hope of their message getting across to Scottish voters. As the conference starts, just down the road Britain's first Snoring Boot Camp is helping people to get a good night's rest. Fitting, as the Tories message makes Scots voters want to seek the comfort of sleep.
Six snorers will be put through their paces at the army-style Boot Camp complete with a Sergeant Major. They will take orders from a leading Ear, Nose and Throat specialist, a professional personal trainer and a diet expert, in an attempt to combat their snoring problem for good.
A spokesperson for the Scottish Liberal Democrats said: "There is a good chance that there will be many more people snoring in Birmingham by the end of the week. While David Cameron seems to think he is Tony Blair mark two, parading to power as the Government crumbles, his effect in Scotland is soporific.
"A recent poll shows that Scots are less than convinced by Cameron's all too smarmy soundbites. While the Tories may be dreaming of success, the Liberal Democrats are determined to save people from the nightmare of Conservative rule, one that decimated Scottish communities in the 80s and early 90s."
I watched the toe-curling question-and-answer session 
on devolution at the Tory Conference on the BBC Parliament channel yesterday. My goodness, if anything creaked, that did! Auntie Annabel Goldie, Leader of the Scottish Conservatives, said the Tories were the only politicians who could save the Union. Funny that ... I thought the Tories were the people propping up Salmond's minority government by voting for the SNP budget.
